Our take

Desk verdict

Be U is Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad’s digital brand. PIDM follows Bank Islam. In 2026 the Be U app is being onboarded into BIMB Mobile and progressively phased out. That is a skin change, not a wind-down of the deposit. AEON Bank is the separate BNM Islamic digital bank on this desk.

Pink app, Qard Saving-i, Al-Awfar. getbeu.com now sells the BIMB Mobile next chapter. Directories will keep a Be U tile for years. This desk keeps the slug so a store-listing ghost cannot look like a live third bank.

Be U lists Digital brand of Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad — Islamic bank under Bank Negara Malaysia in Malaysia. On safeguarding we currently write: PIDM on eligible deposits at Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad — Be U is the skin, Bank Islam is the member. Holder / issuer line: Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad. An AML programme is claimed. There is no IBAN-class local rail on the flags we store. We list 1 live markets on the product. As we score the sticker: monthly Islamic current / savings SKUs — confirm live; FX Not a travel card; ATM Bank Islam / network. This desk would open it for: Malaysian residents who want Bank Islam PIDM with a pink app, and will move to BIMB Mobile when told.

What it does well: Named Islamic bank behind the brand; PIDM; Halal product set. What to watch: App is being folded into BIMB Mobile; Malaysia-only; Brand will look ‘closed’ in stale stores. Desk score 6.7 / 10 (safety 8.0, fees 7.4, features 6.8, app 7.2). Last verified 2026-08-28. Headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; founded 2022. None of this is advice — it is a file so you can read the entity before the card colour.

Best for: Malaysian residents who want Bank Islam PIDM with a pink app, and will move to BIMB Mobile when told.
